I refer to an article by Mark Longbottom entitled The Secrets of the Deep.
The BEN quoted Stephen Gregory - who plans to write a book on submarines - as saying "Nobody has really given the men who did all the work a voice so far."
The submarine's crew are very close-knit officers and men alike, each respecting another. To imply that we ratings did all the work is silly. I wish Stephen well with his book, but he will have to get his facts right.
